...alone, Though it will take $90,000 to feed the tent town's planned population of 3,000 for a month, barely a third of that sum has been raised-despite sizable contributions from such chains as A. & P., Safeway and Giant Food, as well as promises of 850 loaves of bread a day from the baking industry and 1,500 half-pints of milk from local dairies.

...wake up the next man and stay out on the entrance window ledge until five. I am to let no-one in as we now have a population of 150 and we want a stable commune--no tourists. We even consider a Stalinist purge to reduce the mouths to feed. Only tonight does my roommate decide to occupy a building. I have about seven degrees of disdain and contempt for him but he got in before my watch. I stamp on the hand of anyone who leaves "Rush." This allows them to get back...
